HP x2 10-inch Detachable Laptop with Stylus Pen, Intel Atom x5-Z8350, 2GB RAM, 32GB eMMC, Windows 10 (10-p020nr, Silver)

There has not been a lot of reviews on this tablet since it just came out in September 2016. I have had mine now for about a month and I purchased the model with the Stylus. I also purchased the 2 GB RAM/32 GB ROM version because I was not going to be using this as a laptop but the RAM is upgradeable to 4GB should you choose to do so down the road.This is a solid little tablet that feels well made. You don't have to worry about easily scratching the screen because it is Gorilla Glass. It has a full size USB 3.1 port and I am using a 128GB USB 3.0 thumb drive for my large files. File transfers are fast and smooth. It also has a USB-C 2.0 connector which is also used for charging the tablet. The keyboard though small feels comfortable when typing and the keys have a nice feel to them. You will not feel constrained using this 10.1 inch tablet. The keyboard is magnetic and it is attachable in 4 different positions or remove it completely. The magnet is very strong and there is no chance the keyboard will fall off. In the Micro SD card slot I am using a very fast 64 GB card and it is designated as my D: drive. I have Windows 10 set to install all new programs on the D: Drive. Windows 10 with some built in programs that you can remove uses close to 20 Gigs of the 32. This is why you want to use an SD card as your other drive. HP states 64 GB is the largest SD card you can use but I tried a 128GB card and it recognized it with no problem. The version of Windows 10 that is installed is the 64 bit version designed for tablets and small laptops. It will update itself to the most recent version when you get connected to the internet.The charger that comes with the tablet will charge it to 50% capacity in only 30 minutes. Full charge only takes about 2 hours. The battery is impressive. You will get the full 9-10 hours if you use it non-stop. If you use it for normal daily tasks like email, surfing the web, or documents; you will find you don't have to charge it for 4-5 days. I am so used tablet batteries only lasting a few hours that I was very impressed on how this tablet handles the power. There are also power settings you can adjust in Windows 10 that helps tweak the battery usage so you can get the most out of it.The sound on the tablet is pretty good for a device this size. It comes with 2 front facing stereo speakers and DTS sound software to adjust to your liking. You will not get any real bass on the tablet but the sound is loud enough to watch videos and hear everything clearly. Using earphones works well also.Input devices, in addition to the Stylus that comes with it I also received a Bluetooth wireless mouse as part of a special deal. Using a Bluetooth wireless mouse instead of a wireless USB mouse helps prevent having to place a wireless dongle in your USB port so you can use it for storage. The HP Stylus pen is very precise and has over 250 levels of pressure that it can sense so drawing and writing is like using a regular pen. The lighter you press the thinner the line and the harder you press the bolder and thicker the line. The pen and tablet are not up to Surface Pro standards but for the money this is an amazingly versatile device. The Stylus also has a programmable button on it and it can be set to cause action on the screen a few millimeters away from the screen without touching it.This tablet does everything I want it and need it to do plus the bonus of Windows 10 functionality. I would highly recommend it.

This Laptop is probably the best bang for your buck on the market, and it looks amazing compared to the other x5 (cherry trail) competition.The industrial design is TOP NOTCH!Now, I must say, my review is biased, in my opinion windows 10 is trash -- and thus I do not use it.I prefer linux-- xubuntu, for my desktop experience.If you want to run linux on this Laptop, lert me save you some time:Go download xubuntu 17.04 iso, and use rufus or unetbootin to create the installer usb drive.xubuntu 17.04 iinstalls flawlessly with all the drivers you need, etc Wifi/Bluetooth/SpeakerI havent checked the driver support for the cameras, but im sure it can work if you setup video4linux.If you have installed XUBUNTU on this laptop, everything will run pretty quick, and you will have 22GB of free space for other apps and media you have.XUBUNTU comes with FireFox pre-installed, so this laptop becomes the perfect on the go machine.The x5 is a pretty fast CPU, much faster than arm v7 & arm v8 at the same 2ghz clock speed.-- ie much faster than android devicesI hope you found this information usefeul.Thanks

I'm liking the machine as a computer and for the small size. It's really light, and being able to get a case for it that really fits and has a loop for the touchpen is great. The keyboard is as fully functional for a touch typist as it looked like it would be from the pictures. Nothing funky about offset shift keys or anything.I do have one problem, though. It seems like the shift and control keys don't always work. It's a software rather than hardware issue, since it happens frequently with both the wireless and wired external keyboards I've tried as well. I keep having to go back and try again to capitalize letters or add underscores. For a SQL programmer, it's pretty obnoxious. I finally turned on sticky-keys, but if it doesn't recognize the initial shift press, then the next letter typed is still lower case.

I ordered this product with the optional HP stylus on 01 Feb 2017 and received it on 05 Feb 2017 for my wife. She had some issues with the device running slowly and the stylus stopped working. We contacted HP customer support which is outsourced to India and El Salvador. After multiple transfers and being told the HP X2 was completely updated and running fine, therefore the issue must be with our internet provider. This completely disregards the 5 other devices which are running perfectly fine on internet. After several more transfers I finally get to speak about the stylus not working when the customer service rep (who was actually a sales rep) tells me I or my wife must have touched something or shut something off and that my warranty only covers basic computer components and I need to purchase software coverage for $14.95 a month and a $35.00 activation fee to get help with the stylus. At this point I asked since my warranty covers basic components that I wanted a new stylus sent to me and I would return the old one. The sales rep continued to try and speak over me with his spiel at which point I was frustrated and raising my voice with him and my wife asked for the phone. Her encounter with this jerk went the same as mine. As this was going on I had sent my son to the store to get a new battery, low and behold, they had sent an almost dead battery. If this is the kind of customer support, and I use the word support very loosely, HP offers for their products, there will never again be anything with HP on it in my home.
